Reasonable Flexibility to Attendance Policy
Attendance is an essential requirement of most courses at Adelphi University. Students are generally required to attend class and follow the attendance policy established by the instructor in each class.
Federal law requires colleges and universities to consider reasonable modification of attendance policies if required to accommodate a student’s disability. We’ve developed the Flexibility to Attendance Policy to address this issue.
Sign Language Interpreters
Sign language interpreting services can be arranged for students who are deaf or hard of hearing. Students must adhere to certain protocols in order to receive interpreting services.
